Does anyone have a good resource (article, YouTube, etc) on how to take apart reels and clean/lube them?
There are plenty on YouTube. I don’t have one in particular, but I would search on the reel type and go from there. For example ‘Shimano Caenan Maintenance’
I have used them a lot. In fact I recently replaced the drag washers on a bait caster - easy 20 min job.

Optiker is correct. Just Google your reels and you will find all kinds of stuff on maintenance. It’s not rocket science. Just lay every piece out in order take pic’s with your cell phone and it should be no problem unless you are dealing with some complicated reels.
A wise man once said “Do as I say not as I do” Good advice when I tell you that.
